So, now I've tried the short Rossmods chassis, the stock setup, and stock chassis with arms turned.
With the Rossmods, the car felt quite nimble, but in a high grip, high speed situation, I didn't really feel this as an improvement. I believe that this could be better on clay with rear motor, but on Astro I didn't really like it.
The Pookster setup though, was very interesting. It was so grippy I went from good forward drive, to constant wheely king driving. It makes the car feel a bit stiff and unpredictable though, so unless the grip is down, I'd much rather run the stock car.
What I have found to be the "it" thing for me, is moving the shocks out on the rear arms. It can feel a bit slippier, but the rear end is just more there, more in tune with the front, so you don't have to wait for the car to turn going through tight corners.
As of now, I run regular saddles and no weights. tried some weight plates under the battery, but didn't really feel any better, just heavier and slower.
I feel I need to stop the car from rolling so much with the front, gonna test some springs and stuff this week. Here's my setup so far:
